What is Treasure?

Regarding this question, Xing Jie's statement in the past was very simple.

Gold jewelry, diamond agate.

Later, 'Adamantite' and 'Mithril', relics of prehistoric civilization.

But until now, only extremely rare things can attract his attention. Others, simply ignored.

If this place is really just a mundane thing after it is opened, then Xing Jie will have no choice but to take the 1% reward. But fortunately, the super big diamond was in his backpack, as well as the six jade gui and a jade man, and this trip was not empty-handed.

Xing Jie and Ke Laili on the stairs did not have the tension and excitement of the treasure about to arrive, Xing Jie's face was relaxed and freehand. Now for him, there is no shortage of money, what is lacking is passion. He enjoyed the feeling of exploring the treasure, not the treasure itself. As he walked, he evaluated the taste and grade of the builders here, and asked Corelli directly if he didn't understand anything.

With an industry leader like Claire to comment, this exploration video is also a great sale. Often many organizations, collectors are very interested in this process of exploration, and often buy on a large scale. Especially for explorers of their level like Xing Jie, a trip video is often at the level of 100,000 US dollars.

If you're exploring a secret realm like this valley, the price will be higher.

When Xing Jie and Ke Laili were the first to enter in thousands of years, Xing Jie was shocked by the design plan here. The Pyramid of the Moon, which was built without reinforced concrete and relying solely on the interaction between stones, could not have imagined that there would be such a large space in the middle.

It seems that this moon pyramid is fundamentally different from the pyramid of Khufu in Egypt.

The famous Pyramid of Giza by the god Howard Khufu, except for a few rooms inside. The rest are all stones, well, to put it bluntly, solid boulders made of large stone blocks. It is precisely because of this that there is such a saying that time is helpless against the pyramids.

Except for fantasists of all stripes who are interested in this thing, no one in the real circle is interested in the pyramid itself. What is there to study about all stones? As for the construction method, is it very important? Even if Bill Gates is a rich man, you ask him if he would like to build one for fun with himself? And can he absorb the energy of the universe? God, you better solve the energy crisis on the earth first.

But this moon pyramid is completely different. It can stand for thousands of years while retaining such a large space, and that's where the awesome lies.

But what's in this first layer?

Xing Jie and Corelli got closer to see it before they felt very bored.

Martyrdom!

This layer is neatly lined with the corpses of fully armed warriors, and judging from the bones that are still preserved, it is easy to deduce that these martyrs are all tall and strong men. And the full set of leather armor, including the greenstone necklace worn around the neck, and the gold ring for defense hanging on the arm, do not look like slaves or prisoners of war, they do not have such a high rank! plus the obsidian polished spears, stone axes, and daggers are not difficult to prove that these warriors are the elite of the elite.

However, what shocked Xing Jie the most was that these elite soldiers all wore a mask on their faces, which was the bronze mask! I originally thought that this bronze mask was sacrificed as a sacred object, but I didn't expect that it was a human hand here. Except for the face closest to the staircase, all of the rest.

It seems that Diego should have entered this moon pyramid. But how is this possible? Didn't the Aztecs and the Mayans use bronze equipment? Not to mention the Teotihuacan civilization, which predates them. But what's going on now?

Forget it, this kind of thing, let's wait until after we get out. Now Xing Jie and Corelli are in a bad mood after seeing these soldiers martyred.

Stupid! Such an elite group of soldiers was not sent to open up territory, but instead had a broken brain and was used for burial. Such a controller deserves to be unable to keep the inheritance of civilization.

After Xing Jiezai took more than a dozen photos carefully, he walked to the next floor without nostalgia.

Corelli is naturally not in a good mood, for her, a warrior should die on the battlefield, what the hell is it to be buried? The one in charge is secretly happy, fortunately his coffin is not here, otherwise Xing Jie and Corelli, who are in a bad mood, will see that throwing corpses in the wilderness is the only ending.

It's a big loss, it's really a big loss.

Xing Jie was wailing in his heart.

I thought that I would find a splendid cultural heritage, magic weapons, exquisite utensils, and ingenious luxuries here, but so far there is nothing.

Some are just burials!

All sorts of funerals!

The second layer is the slaves, a large number of slaves. Being tied hand and foot one by one, one by one, row by row being cut and bloodletted, this is simply not killing, it is like killing chickens.

All the corpses were neatly arranged in the shape of a Kyoto temple. And the blood all over their bodies was concentrated on the platform in the middle of the second floor. And this stone platform shocked Xing Jie and Ke Laili in their hearts, no way, it was too familiar. The kind of stone cube in the ruins of Serabyoum!

Only now did Xing Jie know what the groove on the top of the cube was for, just to fit the mysterious pattern on the ground! After the blood of slaves and prisoners of war was released, it was poured on the middle stone cube, and then the blood quickly flowed down the groove, and finally covered the pattern on the second layer of the ground.

"Corelli, is this some kind of prayer ritual?" Xing Jie asked.

"I haven't heard of blood sacrifices in the Teotihuacan civilization, but the Aztecs and Mayan civilizations have all kinds of blood sacrifices. In particular, their war prayers basically use the virgins of noble families for bloodstains. This second layer is already a blood sacrifice, and I think the next layer can guess that it should be a human sacrifice!"

"It's so ruthless, in the end, I don't even let go of my own people, I really know how to play. Let's go and see what the owner of this pyramid will do in the end. ”

The method of sacrifice on the third layer really made Korelli right. However, her face was not very good-looking, staring at the sacrifices whose hands and legs had been cut off, and even the heads had been cut off, she no longer spoke, but kept taking pictures.

After a while, he said to Xing Jie: "It seems that we guessed wrong, this is not a burial, this is the last sacrifice." It seems that when this sacrifice was held, it was at the most critical juncture of this civilization.

If I look at the sacrifices, if I'm not misjudged, all of them should be members of the royal family, and all of them are descendants!"

"Kelaili, how do you know?" Xing Jie was shocked, how could an emperor sacrifice his entire family as a sacrifice?

Corelli didn't speak, just pointed to a small trinket, which was carved out of obsidian. Although the appearance is exaggerated, the details are still perfectly preserved. The craftsmen are extremely skillful in their handling techniques, and the polishing is not flawless, which is really a rare top-quality craft.

This is the jaguar, and it is also a very important god in their god system! The only person who can wear the jaguar is the royal family!

So, if the next layer is still a human sacrifice, there will only be one.

That's the one in charge!
